About the tutor

!Bienvenidos! Welcome to my profile!

I have many years of teaching experience. I also have a PhD. in Biomedical Sciences from Wright State University, in Ohio. I throughly enjoy teaching and I love science!! So, please let me share my passion with you!

I have lived and worked in United States (Emory University and Johns Hopkins University) for over 10 years. I can certainly help improve your written and conversational English skills. Since I have already been through the struggle of learning English as a second language I think I have a good insight in all the challenges it entails!

I strongly believe that is very important to make every class customized for the specific needs of each one of my students. Therefore I like to personalize my classes to your specific and unique needs.

Let's discuss the best approach for you in our first lesson! Please, book a lesson today! and let's start learning together!

Ana is an amazing and kind hearted tutor who is willing to go the extra step to help. She will take the time to thoroughly explain and find alternate ways to explain if you cannot understand. She will brush up on the topic and get back to you if that is ever the case. Overall my experience was good and I would go back to her again in the future if need be.

Ana is an incredible instructor! My Spanish has improved tremendously since I began working with her. She really knows what a language learner needs and keeps the lessons fun, interesting, varied and engaging. She always prepares a tailored lesson plan that helps me learn new concepts and reinforces
things on which I need further practice. Specific areas I have shown great progress under Ana's instruction have been in grammar and my ability to speak confidently.
Ana is intelligent, dedicated, supportive and fun! If you are thinking of working with a tutor, you will love Ana!

I have been very pleased with Ana as a tutor. She is methodical, logical, detail oriented, and ensures we use enough repetition to retain what is learned.

Ana is an excellent teacher for my son. She checks on his specific learning needs and plan her lessons accordingly. She is always well prepared and her lessons are carefully structured. She is also very patient and understanding, flexible with schedules. My son thoroughly enjoys taking Spanish lessons with her. We feel very lucky to have found her at Preply.
